Direct link to the script output for the recent failing runs: https://logstash.wikimedia.org/goto/79be3a678b56eb0bb398e4e28188c323

They are failing with a message like:

Error: '''Your IP address is in a range that has been [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Global blocks|blocked on all Wikimedia Foundation wikis]].'''

Maybe something from T408724 affected this?

Or maybe this is an old issue, same thing as T393656 / T394733?
